Awesome, Ti! And you should find the more you listen to them you won't feel a need to listen to any other headphone.

One thing I noticed about the bass --- the bass is all there, it really is. It just has to be there on the recordings. The HD600 will show more bass even with mediocre sources, and/or if the source output voltage is lower. The HD800 will benefit the most if the source is high quality, and/or if the source output voltage is higher which you will find with balanced outputs, typically 4 - 5V --- and if the headphone amp can put out between 18 - 24V. This has been my experience with them. Also, the amp's output impedance should be as low as possible, which with the Beta22 is obviously not a problem at 0.01 ohms.

Ti, glad you like them, now all you need is an reference balanced DAC design to go with the B22 and HD800. Do you have any ideias about who could design one??

Surely you must be thinking of Dan Lavry!

Congrats Ti! Thanks for posting your impressions on them (first time I've seen you post anything subjective).
Coincidentally, I too got my HD800s today and am enjoying them very much.
